How can I compare two string..

Based on the information you've provided and my lack of caffeine here is a solution:

    static bool IsEqual(String left, String right)
    {
        left = Regex.Replace(left, ":[0-9]*:[0-9]*", "");
        right = Regex.Replace(right, ":[0-9]*:[0-9]*", "");
        return left.Equals(right);
    }

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(IsEqual("SAAT:232:34", "SAAT:12:23")); // True
        Console.WriteLine(IsEqual("PAAT:23:34", "SAAT:12:23")); // False
        Console.WriteLine(IsEqual("SAAT:23:34:HAT", "SAAT:12:23:HAT")); // True
    }
